Whenever I fly, I like a window seat—I love the view! Things on earth become very small; and the higher you fly, the smaller they get!
The benefit of being raised up with Christ and seated in the “heavenly places” (Eph. 1:20; 2:6) is the new view we get—we see the things of earth from a heavenly point of view! Living in perilous times, as we are, there is a greater need than ever to look at these events through heavenly eyes. Jesus said, “When these things begin to take place (perilous times that precede His coming) straighten up and lift up your heads” (Luke 21:28).
When we look up, we see that our Father is in control of everything. Things on earth seem to matter less. It seems to me if everything we need is to be found in the heavenly realm, we would want to get a window seat.
